Why people loves Java? It's because the maintenance or something in architectural level? I don't understand, because we have languages like Python with a better syntax and languages like C++ with a better optimization and speed of processing

Are you a professional developer? Have you ever worked on an enterprise level? Have you ever worked on an application thst expanded outside web development?
Have you ever been in the need of an efficient multithreaded system? Is your project to be maintained by a large group of people? Do you have an academic background? Do you need your code to be efficiently shared across operating systems?

Python is nice. Not saying it ain't. So is cpp. But these comparisons reek of noobishness.

@irene without hassle? Lol get real. The sole fact that cpp does not have a centralized package distribution system like the Java(shit even c#, python or even php and node) makes it a big no no in most places.

Every large project at one point or another will have a nightmare of a make file. This gets creepy real quick.

Now, I didn't say that cpp is bad, i will jump in and defend it if peeps be talking shit. But to say that Java has no place, or even infer it, when there is cpp ...it is...well...silly.

It’s hard to screw things up in Java.

It’s easy to learn, easy to read, one of the best IDE support I’ve experienced but it’s still “mighty”..

You don’t have to care about memory (compared to c / c++) or the OS and so on..

However, a language should always be picked by the problem you want to solve..
for e.g. web Java is great but I’d never write a deployment script in java.
Different language == different purposes / strengths..

In Java, it is necessary attention with the language. That's horrible to create algorithms.

@irene your doubt on how a big project would be faces a different reality(sadly)

I wish it were that the powerful performant language that cpp is would shine in such way. But it does not. I really enjoy the language, but not having a decent package manager with it really screwes it over.

And yes, qt is nice, but it ain't the end all be all of cpp development

@MetalHead-X "necessary attention within the language"

What in the name of Gosling does that even mean?

And just to be clear: I love cpp(and @irene) and really really wish it were the one lang to rule them all(becoz right now is js ;__;)

@irene compared to asm, cobol , plain c or similar, it’s super easy IMO..
